    Cotto has been looking good lately, but he doesn't have the mental toughness to win a war. No shot against GGG. He has a chance at outboxing Canelo, but Canelo also takes him out if it turns into a firefight.

      mandatory defenses have to be at the weight limit

      GGG could agree to a catchweight but Cotto would have to be offering him some cash, but he doesn't have to accept the catchweight for the fight to be made/cotto to vacate

        "still winning"

        lost to trout
        beat a one-legged Yuri Foreman
        beat a one-legged Sergio Martinez who refused to fight GGG (this needs to be stated everytime Cotto fans hype that win up, he beat a guy who avoided GGG like the plague)
        beat a journeyman Delvin Rodriguez
        beat a past-prime/journeyman Ricardo Mayorga
        beat a literal european bum in Michael Jennings
        beat a past-it, soul-taken Antonio Margarito

          I would favour Golvkin because the size and power difference but it wouldn't be easy to him. If they would be same sized then I would obviously go with Cotto. Cotto is a more well wounded, more proven and P4P wise better fighter than Golovkin.

            Who's down??? If not real money, then some sort of prize., like a gift card or something.
            I agree that Cotto beats Canelo but that wouldn't be a surprise.

            However, if GGG isn't too drained...he will batter Cotto. Miguel, a much younger, fitter, more prime version couldn't handle Margarito and Pacquiao but he's supposed to handle GGG?

              I would have to go with GGG, but Cotto is a bit of an unknown quantity right now.

              Just how good has he become under Roach? But he will be facing one of the best middleweights of recent times, so its a big ask.

                I can't imagine how, barring a catchweight that drained Golovkin. If Cotto proved me wrong, I wouldn't hold back an ounce of credit.

                  I honestly think you're out of your mind.

                  Golovkin beats him to a pulp.

                    GGG will eventually be beaten but it won't be by a fighter who has the kind of style Cotto has

                      You make a thread about Cotto beating GGG at MW but, instead, you are ready to bet real $ on Cotto beating Canelo?
